Camping along the Murray - Rutherglen to Yarrawonga

Eco-friendly place to stay

The straggling reserves along the Murray River offer some quiet waterside camping spots (except during the peak of Easter and Christmas holidays), among river red gums and birds. Try Stantons Bend (near Wahgunyah, north-west of Rutherglen), Taylors Bend (near Yarrawonga) and around Sharps Bend (just west of Yarrawonga). There are some 50 sandy beaches between Yarrawonga and Barmah, which provide excellent swimming, canoeing and kayaking.
